Lord of Arcane

The Holy Golden Dragon Empire also has a god, who is called the [Golden Dragon God] by the golden dragons, but that is just a fictional golden dragon god. After the dragon defeated the elves, the golden dragon won the dragon civil war, and the [Golden Dragon God] was born.

Savile saw the theological writings about the "Golden Dragon God" in the Golden Dragon City Library, which mentioned the origin of the dragon god. Later dragons were studied with an academic mentality, rather than worshiped as gods that cannot be looked directly at. .

Indeed, in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, the belief in the Golden Dragon God is already very common, but it is more like a religion on earth and the spiritual sustenance of the Golden Dragons.

It is even closer to a lifestyle or traditional custom, more secular than sacred.

The priests of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire have never demonstrated divine arts. They are more like theological researchers than priests. Because there is no true god, the golden dragons of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire have never thought of becoming a true god.

There is a high probability that there is no god-becoming technology like the god-ascension ceremony.

But the main plane is different. There are gods in the main plane, and there are even mortals ascending to gods. The princess is a confirmed case of mortals ascending to gods, and the main elf god is a case of mortals ascending to gods speculated by Xia Duo.

When the main plane is invaded, the Lord of Glory may not take action, but the princess and the elven god who likes to interfere in the mortal world will not fail to take action.

This is the absolute advantage of the main plane.

The reason why there is such a huge difference between the two planes in the field of [God] is that in addition to the differences in the development of the planes themselves, the existence of elves is also a reason that cannot be ignored!

There are also elves in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire plane, but the elves in that plane are the native creatures of that plane. In the main plane, although there are native elves, they were assimilated by foreign elves countless years ago.

From the moment the alien elves arrived on the main plane, the history of the main plane reached an extremely huge turning point.

Of course, the god-ascension ceremony in the main plane was not brought over by elves from another plane. Sha Duo had come into contact with an ancient elf in the Ferres Fortress under the arctic ice sheet.

In the era before the other party entered the fortress seal, the elves only had the "creation mother god" in cultural concepts, and there was no true god. Only the dragon tribe with the base of the place at the time had God.

But I don’t know why, the dragon god in this plane was sealed by the dragon clan. The elves took advantage of it and later became the Dragon Mad Lock. Until now, the ancient dragon god is still in the seal, which is King Slayer.

The god-ascension ritual that Netheril obtained from Cormanthor should have been invented by the elves after the ancient wars by studying dragon magic. It was not until the elven civil war that a successful example was achieved, that is, the main god of the elves.

After the main elven god, no new elven god appeared.

The Dragon Clan in the Main Plane has gods, but in the Sacred Golden Dragon Empire plane, the Dragon Clan did not have the concept of God from the beginning until the giant dragon unified the plane. During the Dragon Clan's civil war, the concept of God emerged.

The same goes for the elves in that plane. They didn't have the concept of gods at first. Later, the golden dragon created the concept of the golden dragon god, and it was impossible to give them the opportunity to create the elf god.

If the elves over there had true gods, or could contact the true gods of elves, then the history of that plane would not be what it is now.

As for why the two known large habitable planes have naturally evolved intelligent creatures such as humans, elves, and dragons, Shado has no answer.

There are even more than these two planes, there is also a main plane where the elves' hometown may have been destroyed. There are also dragons and humans there, but the elves are absolutely dominant. Shado also obtained the coordinates of that plane from the ancient elves in Feres Fortress, but he did not explore it because he considered that the plane might have been destroyed, or that if it had not been destroyed, it might contain a great disaster.

These three planes all have intelligent life forms such as humans, elves, and dragons. This should not be a coincidence. Sha Duo speculates that it may be some kind of convergence in the evolution of the planes.

Or just like the anthropic principle on earth, such intelligent life was born only because of the environment that gave birth to these intelligent life.

Intelligent life forms such as humans, elves, and dragons in various planes are actually not exactly the same. There are many branches under the big races, such as the golden elves and moon elves of elves, these two are from the hometown of elves.

The native elves in the main plane are wood elves, and there are some other elves that are now very rare. The same is true for dragons, there are many kinds.

In the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, the largest number of golden dragons is the golden dragon, but the number of golden dragons in the main plane is the smallest. Of course, this is the current number, and there is no relevant data in ancient Xia Duo.

At present, golden dragons in the main plane almost only appear in the elven country. The mounts of the elven dragoons are golden dragons, not other dragon species. The elves use dragons in a similar way to fighter planes, except that the fighter planes in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire are the masters themselves.

The environment creates races. Humans, elves, and dragons will appear in the habitable plane, elemental creatures will appear in the elemental plane, and creatures in between will appear in between.

For example, there are native fishmen in the [Azure Crystal Plane], but there are no native humans, because there is no environment for human survival there, and they cannot evolve.

If this universe is big enough, Xia Duo feels that it is entirely possible for him to encounter a plane where dwarves and gnomes are absolutely dominant in the future. Even if the environment is suitable, it is not impossible for goblins to develop advanced wisdom and become the master of the plane.

……

It is also because of the true existence of God that Xia Duo can confidently believe that the Holy Golden Dragon Empire will not be much higher than the main plane in terms of magic theory.

For example, Netheril has developed 11- and 12-level spells, but they are essentially 10-level spells under the existing theoretical framework, which is also the limit of the magic network.

Even if the Holy Golden Dragon Empire develops spells to level 100, this essence will not change. In fact, it is almost impossible to develop to level 100.

Spells start from level 10, and each time they go up a level, the complexity will go up to another level. The general trend is to increase exponentially. The highest level spell that Sha Duo knows is only level 13.

It is used by the projection plane of the Red Heart Alliance to create the ultimate arcane string.

Even the other war spells in his floating city are only 11th level. It's not that it can't be higher, but considering the energy efficiency, 11th level is the optimal solution he can currently achieve. This solution is enough to cope with most situations.

Under the existing theoretical framework, the energy consumption and power of a 100-level standard spell can be calculated. However, as long as you calculate it, you will know that this spell is basically impossible to appear on the main plane.

Mythra cannot support such spells. Even in the projection plane of the Red Heart Alliance, it can only support 13th-level spells, and spells under this level cannot have a crushing effect on 11th-level spells. (Essentially they are all 10 rings)

It is expected that the Holy Golden Dragon Empire will not be much higher than the 13th ring.

Only divine power can reduce dimensionality and strike. The advancement that the great arcanists of Netheril are currently pursuing is actually to reach the state of being close to the gods through pure arcane methods. (The ascension ceremony is optional)

At this point, because of the existence of God, the main plane may be progressing faster than the Holy Golden Dragon Empire!

After all, one party has seen the tangible ceiling, while the other party is still under the invisible ceiling.
